Does America Want David Haye?

[slicksouthpaw16]

"Devastating" power at CW doesn't always equate to the same at HW. A good example is Herbie Hide. He could knock people out of the ring at CW, but he didn't quite have the power to cause major damage at HW.

Haye is any promoter's dream fighter. He can box. He has great power. In addition he's good looking and articulate.

If you can't market Haye you can't market anybody.

Riddock Bowe said himself that Hide had him out on his feet and Hide also landed some hard shots on Vitali in the first round of their fight, before eventually being stopped in the second round.

Who gives a *** the world of boxing needs David Haye with his style and power together with his move up to Heavyweight.

Yer.

[Feint]

Sure, why not? Any boxer with skills is appreciated in the sport, and Haye obviously is tallented. Having said that, let's see a couple of fights at heavyweight before we start saying he could beat anyone at that level.

I'm American, and I think he's awesome as ****.

(no ****)?

YEAH I WANT HIM IN AMERICA.....

BUT at CW... potentially fight chad dawson somewhere down the line i would like.


BUT at heavyweight... ??? NAAAA I fear my new motivation will get knocked out rather quickly by one of the bombers...and the heavyweight division (though slacking in talent) has plenty of bombers.

Very fast.

And he has an 81" reach the same as wlad so he wont be able to pull an Ibragamov on Haye.

You said it. He's a murderous CW, but without the tools to make it in today's HW division.

yea man he looks great... even better on paper...


BUT as I and other boxers or devoted watchers have stated..

ITS the BIG boys at heavyweight... Even sloppy @$$ peter could land a money shot on someone moving up.. and erase all the good they have done.


I mean they could probably take a few shots just to return one huge one and Flick off the light switch.

You think hayes CHIN could take a Peter, McCline, Klitschko(either one), BOMB?
